Pan Am Flight 923[edit]

  • ... that although Pan Am Flight 923 was the deadliest commercial aviation accident in Alaska at the time, the cause of the crash remains unknown?
  • Reviewed: Sahara Hospital
  • Comment: Referenced facts can be found in subsections 'Investigation' and 'Probable Cause'.

  • Date, size, refs, neutrality are fine. I added a cite request to the sentence with the hook claim "dedliest", once this is fixed ping me and this should be GTG. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:23, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
  • The two adjacent sentences in that paragraph share the same reference: "At the time of the crash, Pan Am Flight 923 was the deadliest crash in Alaskan commercial aviation. Furthermore, it was the first crash of a Pan American four-engined aircraft." (Reference is the article called "Air Crash Kills 6 in Family.") I was under the impression that if two adjacent sentences share the same reference, they can be bundled into one to reduce clutter. Mûĸĸâĸûĸâĸû (blah?) 05:35, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
  • On second thought I really don't care to argue the point. Sentences reordered so that the factoid in the DYK nomination has the reference on it directly. Mûĸĸâĸûĸâĸû (blah?) 05:37, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
Looks good now. GTG. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:02, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
